From Kenneth
L. Koch, MD -
Dr. Koch is the Head of The Section on Gastroenterology at Wake
Forest University. Dr. Koch has been conducting research in numerous
areas of gastric motility over the past 20 years (Penn State
University), during which time he developed clinical
Electrogastrography to its current state of the art. Dr. Koch is a
graduate of the University of Iowa College of Medicine and a Board
certified gastroenterologist. In addition to his numerous peer review
publications, he is an internationally respected leader in the field
and participant in many symposia around the world concerning gastric

Gastric
Myoelectrical Activity in Premature and Term Infants
Journal of Gastrointestinal Motility

Effect of Barium Meals on Gastric Electromechanical Activity in Man
This paper showed the real-time correlation
between the 3 per minute gastric peristaltic waves and the 3 cycle
per minute electrical waves in the Electrogastrogram signal. The
analogy in Cardiology is the correlation of the QRS wave and
ventricular contraction - Ken
Gastric Dysrhythmias and Nausea of Pregnancy
This paper showed women with morning sickness
had gastric dysrhythmias, but pregnant women with no morning
sickness had normal 3 cycle per minute Electrogastrogram signals.
Thus, objective gastric dysrhythmias have a role in first trimester
nausea. - Ken
Gastric Myoelectrical Activity in Patients With Gastric Outlet
Obstruction and Idiopathic Gastroparesis
This paper showed markedly different EGG
patterns in patients with obstruction and gastroparesis. - Ken
